6 Non-negotiable Things You Have To Do To After A Breakup
1. Changing the scenery
The place you live in never seemed so small. Everywhere you go and everywhere you look there is something that keeps reminding you of him. It’s like a trip down memory lane and it’s not doing you any good.
That’s why you need a change of scenery. Find a different route to work. Go to relax in some park you never went with him. Find a new movie theater. Find a fresh place to take your morning coffee. This is not a way to escape your past, it’s a way to avoid it being in your face all the time. Your brain does enough coming back on its own—you don’t need additional reminders of your ex.
2. Saying goodbye to certain people
There are other people your ex brought with him into your life t who became part of yours. They are his friends or even his family who you came to care for very deeply. But the emphasis is on his. In most cases, they will have his back and hold his side of the story. They will intentionally or unintentionally meddle, give advice or try to bring you guys back together.
If you are serious about moving on, that’s not something you need. What you need is distance from that relationship and everything that is connected to it, even people. It’s harsh. It’s not easy to cut those connections, but sometimes it’s necessary. You have to think about you and your feelings, and whether the presence of those people is getting in your way of letting go of the past.
